We just got back from a three day trip Marrakech-Merzouga. It was a truly unique experience. Our excellent guide Kiki took really well care of us, took his time to answer to all questions, really cared for us and was also an excellent and safe driver. We got to see the Atlas Mountains and made several stops to fully catch the views. A little colder in the mountains than we had expected, bring a warm jacket even if you go early March. Apart from all descriptions of the trip we learned so much about the culture of Marocko. I fully recommend this trip!

5 out of 5 stars

One of the best tours I've done in terms of value of money. 3d2n with reasonable price, meals provided except from lunch which is also good and reasonable restaurant. 3x camel riding in overall and sunset + sunrise in deser. My driver Abdulleh is a very nice and kind local and he is driving responsibly. Amazing high atlas view

5 out of 5 stars

The trip is highly recommended. The program is very well organized and you see a lot of the country. Amoudou was a great guide! The only disadvantage is the long bus rides.
